Both recipes should be in the blog somewhere.<br />When they are ripe, the fruit should just fall off into your hand with very little effort. I guess you could wait until some begin to fall of their own accord.<br />You are lucky to have them so close to home, enjoy!<br />Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14220955144459387163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244231575608437104.post-7329368289036178912015-06-08T03:43:05.112+01:002015-06-08T03:43:05.112+01:00This is an old post, but 2 trees in the new backya...This is an old post, but 2 trees in the new backyard look like cherry plums. The red leafed tree has dark red fruit, bigger than a large cherry.<br />The other has green leaves, and the fruit is also green with occasional yellow and blush spots. I am unfamiliar with these trees, but this fruit will NOT go to waste. I come from a foraging family that raided wild trees and brambles for years. How can I tell when they are ripe? Especially the green ones? Any ideas for preserving other than jam (which my kids are demanding!) ?<br />Thanks for any ideas!Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10452934924291742620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2244231575608437104.post-45358309449831755532012-08-31T08:51:43.868+01:002012-08-31T08:51:43.868+01:00That jam sounds delicious - would make a great Xma...That jam sounds delicious - would make a great Xmas gift too.

M...Gees, that's a lot of colours for one fruit! Me and my dad found a whole row of laden plum trees at broadmarsh. There were these lovely yellow ones which pretty much burst when you touched them, they were so ripe. There was also some much more firm deep red plums, and some red-and-green ones too. There was also about four strange tiny deep purple plums that looked like cherries but tasted like greengages. I think they must all be cherry plums. And they were all very nice. We ended up making a plum, blackberry and apple jam with ginger, cinnamon and cloves in it. We are saving it for Christmas though. Hope it's nice!<br /> Eleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988612665699867390noreply@blogger.com
